Here’s a recent MLB story from the AP:

NEW YORK (AP) — Giancarlo Stanton hit a game-tying double in the ninth inning and Anthony Rizzo followed with a game-winning single to give the New York Yankees a 2-1 victory over the Detroit Tigers on Friday night.

Blanked on two hits in eight innings, the Yankees got four in a row against Jason Foley (2-1) to start and end the ninth in the blink of an eye.

Aaron Judge opened the inning by bouncing a single up the middle and advanced to second on Alex Verdugo’s bunt single to third. Stanton, who struck out his previous three times, then lined an opposite-field double into the right-field corner on a 97 mph sinker, leaving runners on second and third.

It was Stanton’s first hit this season on a pitch 97 mph or faster.

Rizzo then hit an infield single past the glove of diving second baseman Andy Ibáñez.

Foley, who grew up on nearby Long Island, had converted 14 consecutive save chances since June 18 of last year.
